Wear ear plugs
Been in civil construction for 12 years now, was pretty dumb as a laborer, because I was a laborer so of course I was (demo saw, jackhammer, air compressors oh my). Anyways, 32 now have tinnitus in both ears, one ear worse off than the other, now I'm wearing ear plugs even when I'm running the excavator, is it helping now? Unlikely, makes me feel like it might tho..
Don't he a fool, wrap your tool.. or whatever
